Thanks for the video! I'll definitely be making use of those websites this holiday season as I start buying seeds for next year! It's been a little hard to find out what's local to my exact region so it's a HUGE help
Prairie Moon nursery has a native region tab on most of their plant descriptions. Super easy to see if a plant is native to your area. The book 'Raising Butterflies and Moths in the Garden 2nd ed' by Dziedzic has region maps for mentioned butterflies/ moths and the host plants needed for the larvae. If a butterfly is native to your area, the host plants will, necessarily, also be native so that will give you some guidance.

You're welcome! I'm so glad it was helpful. The BONAP thing is a game changer. :)
Great tip about Bonap, I did not know about it. Thanks.
Happy to help!😊
